The Nashville Predators have a lot of work to do if they expect to take down the Dallas Stars tonight. Not only have they dropped their last eight contests this season, but they also lost to the Stars the last time these two teams met. This match will be played at American Airlines Center, where the Stars are on a 4-0 home winning streak. Making things more complicated, Predators captain and points leader Roman Josi suffered a lower-body injury in a game on Tuesday and may not be fit to play tonight. He joins Ryan O'Reilly, who continues to deal with a lower-body injury, and Gustav Nyquist, who didn't play in Nashville's loss to the Calgary Flames on Tuesday.

Dallas Stars - Nashville Predators Key Points

  1. Dallas have won 11 of their last 13 games at home this season
  2. Dallas are 12-3 when scoring first this season
  3. Nashville lost their last 2 games against Dallas

Our Dallas Stars vs Nashville Predators Prediction

With the Stars, now third in the Central Division, enjoying continued success on their ice, and the Predators dealing with a massive skid and injuries, this matchup leans heavily in favor of Dallas. Jason Robertson has picked up 10 goals against the Stars, including one in the opening contest to start this year's season. Adding to the advantage, Stars goalie Jake Oettinger racked up 33 saves in that opening game and is now 10-1-0. He has earned a 1.99 goals-against average (GAA) and a .929 save percentage at home since the season began, with backup Casey DeSmith adding his own 2.05 GAA across two starts at home. Making the outcome even more lopsided, Predators goalie Juuse Saros now sits on a 3.46 GAA. Dallas has consistently outperformed Nashville, both on offense and defense, and it doesn't appear that this game will be any different. Our betting prediction for Nashville Predators vs. Dallas Stars: Dallas Stars to win.
